Doesn't even communicate..

Open dayt0n opened this issue 10 years ago • 7 comments

So I have rebuilt libirecovery a few times now and that seems to be doing nothing. Every time I run 

irecovery -s
or 
irecovery -c
it does nothing for a few seconds and then it exits. No error messages or anything. Some of the other options work, but it is just being very frustrating. Please Help.

Platform? Device? iOS Version? Device Mode? Please supply some context information…

iOS 8, OS X, recovery mode, iPad2,5 (iPad mini wifi 1st gen) and any other device I try.

Can you try it with the latest codebase? On OSX it will also use IOKit instead of libusb now.

I experience the same issue on Linux. Any ideas :)? Thanks!

@echelonh you probably need to execute this command as root on Linux.

@nikias I did run as root... I compiled everything with GCC 5 - does it make any difference?

In any case, I see the device in lsusb, irecovery can read the NONC (which means some communication is possible), but it fails to truly connect and after a few attempts it gives up.

Thank you.
